Title: Paper Wallet to bitcoin-qt Post by: noob_jul11 on September 13, 2012, 07:42:50 PM I haven't been here for a long time due to transition from fresh grad to working "adult".
Anyway, I'm intrigued by the development of Paper Wallet. My question however is how do I add the address from the paper wallet to the bitcoin-qt (for when I need to spend btc - possibly need to update blocks?) So for example, I go to https://www.bitaddress.org/ and I created a btc address, let's say xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ; along with it a private key of yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. How (if there's a way) do I add this address to the bicoin client, bitcoin-qt??

You can do this with the API method importprivkey: - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Importprivkey Title: Re: Paper Wallet to bitcoin-qt Post by: noob_jul11 on September 17, 2012, 08:00:42 PM You can do this with the API method importprivkey: - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Importprivkey Thks!
